Questions, Challenges and New Visions: A Conversation between Fred Ho and Eric Mann
May 17, 2013
Do you still believe you can and want to end white supremacy, patriarchy, imperialism and build a revolutionary post-capitalist world? Then come to this historic event in a historic location: Veteran organizers and revolutionary theorists Eric Mann and Fred Ho, founders respectively of the Labor Community Strategy Center in Los Angeles, and Scientific Soul Sessions in New York City, will have a public conversation about the way forward for the 21st century, to the tune of the live music of the Scientific Soul Band!
Socialism or ecosocialism? Mass organizing or ending empire? Help us discover the dialectic between revolution and prefiguration, for the restoration of the commons, as we “combine the provable and the unprovable in intense and invigorating environments”.
